Smart Environment

SmartEnvironment is a holistic, modular system for the monitoring
of a host of internal and external environmental conditions,
this contributing to greater levels of health, safety, security and well being

The Evolvea SmartEnvironment platform entails an extensive range of environmental controls, measurements and evaluation versus permitted levels. These include detection of pollutants, their types and levels, noise, radiation, electromagnetic and many more. All measurements and remediation of violations are logged, hence a fine grained audit for a large amount of Environment, Health and Safety regulations can be provided automatically.

Monitoring of air quality versus benchmarks: concentrations of gas pollutants, or other matter

Monitoring the intensity of ionizing radiation: alpha radiation level resulting from the presence of radon, radiation level derived from the presence of radioactive material

Monitoring the level of noise pollution: noise levels in dB (A) and the same measure relative to a time period (i.e. detect continuous, unaccounted for, noise)(Leq (A))

Monitoring of electromagnetic pollution: radiofrequency field level. Detect continuous and alternating magnetic fields and their levels

Monitoring of the intensity of odor: odorous concentrations resulting from gases or vapors.

The Evolvea CROMoS System

Continuous Remote Odor Monitoring System

Technical Specifications

Large Garbage management facilities, petro chemical & gas plus a large number of industrial plants, are all exposed to a wide variety of odors, the detection of which is key for the management of the Environmental Health and Safety of the facilities and their surroundings.
CROMoS (Continuous Remote Odour Monitoring System) has been conceptualized in line with the Odor Units regulation part of the European Union UNI EN 13725 norm for the detection and management of both hazardous and non-hazardous odors and their subsequent management.
The CROMos System consists of the following

SmartNetwork of specifically developed sensors based upon the Evolvea long life self-powering technology and the likewise battery powered SmartNetwork for the delivery of data to our Big Data conform SmartCloud

The Evolvea SmartCloud for the real-time processing of data and use for Applications

Web Applications for the configuration, interrogation and processing of activities

Detection Network
The Evolvea odor detection network of has been designed to identify and localize the presence of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) and other hazardous odors. The Evolvea sensors are based upon Photoelectrochemical processes with the ability to detect the presence of a vast array of Hydrocarbons, the main symptom of hazardous odors. The network of sensors can be easily connected to a local weather station, to take the current conditions into consideration.

Smart NetworkThe Evolvea SmartNetwork is the most innovative of its kind. The battery operated components of routers and gateways are completely wireless and self-configuring. Hence installation and maintenance is literally “drag and drop “. The batteries have a lifespan of between 10 15 years and can have photovoltaic modules attached for a complete energy autonomy. Routers collaborate to provide complete redundancy and reliability, while Gateways enable the implementation of Sub networks and communicate with the data center via all Internet communication protocols.

Data processing and risk assessment
Data collected is analyzed by scientifically developed models for the assessment of risks associated with odor levels, current climatic conditions and the landscape

Analysis of historical and current weather conditions on macro and localized levels

Detection and management of silent killers; E.g. Asbestos, Legionella

Geo spatial Map of the area

Elaboration of the environmental fluid dynamics within the area monitored

Identification of the various fluid dynamics’ scenarios

Continuous measurement of Volatile organic compounds and the climatic conditions

Continuous evaluation of the sensors’ readings relative to the weather conditions

Continuous analysis of the data, relative to specific models, scenarios and threshold values

Predictive calculations, simulation and analysis – Very powerful methodologies for the detection of early warning signs, hence the subsequent invoking of counter measures

Continuous database updates
